Big Guys Sausage Stand Keeps Promise to Support LGBT Youth

A pig roast fundraiser May 30 will raise money for the Howard Brown Health Center and Berwyn Arts and Music.

After Memories Pizza in Indiana raised more than $850,000, a Berwyn sausage stand owner held his own fundraiser and promised to donate the money to support LGBT youth and the arts.

Big Guys Sausage Stand is about to make good on that promise.

The GoFundMe campaign titled “Non Bigoted Restaurant Wants Cash” raised more than $2,800, and the restaurant is sponsoring a fundraiser May 30 called Outtafest to benefit the Howard Brown Health Center and Berwyn Arts & Music.

The event has a lineup of local musicians, live art and a pop-up art gallery, sponsored by The Outtaspace. A pig roast and craft beer will tie the festivities together.
